Seedlings of 15 kinds of apple rootstocks were treated with 200 mM NaCl for 10 d to assess growth, biomass, and physiological responses. Under NaCl stress, their growth parameters decreased compared with the control, with the greatest changes in leaf number, plant height, and relative water content (RWC). In contrast, electrolyte leakage (EL) and activities of peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) were increased. For most rootstocks, stress treatment decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) and soluble protein contents along with superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Their degree of salt tolerance was comprehensively evaluated based on salt injury index (SI), adversity resistance coefficients (ARC), and cluster analysis. <i>Malus prunifolia</i> Borkh cv. dongbeihuanghaitang, <i>M. sieboldii</i> Rehd cv. daguohongsanyehaitang, <i>M. prunifolia</i> Borkh cv. qiuzi, and <i>M. xiaojinensis</i> Cheng et Jia were salt-tolerant rootstocks, whereas <i>M. prunifolia</i> Borkh cv. yingyehaitang, <i>M. micromalus</i> Hemsl, and <i>M. sieboldii</i> Rehd cv. lushihongguo were salt-sensitive rootstocks. These differences in sensitivity were associated with variations in the activities of anti-oxidation enzymes and in the amount of organic osmotica. 收起
